A full-bodied, deeply colored red wine is just the ticket for alluding to the romance of Spain, with its varied landscape, myriad sub-cultures and concomitant fabulously varied cuisine. This deeply dark colored dry red wine comes from one of the wine regions where red wines rule: Ribera del Duero, just north of Madrid, where the famous ruined castle of Peñafiel and the wines of Vega Sicilia are iconic. Full-bodied, the wine presents aromas of dark fruits—plums especially—while fresh dark fruits fill the palate. Six months in oak have left the fresh fruit unencumbered by extraneous flavors. Mouth-filling and easy to enjoy, the wine offers lovely fruit-derived tannins. Producer is 100% biodynamic. Grape type: Tempranillo. Serve cool, 65ºF/17ºC, in generous tulip-shaped glasses. Foods: meat terrines or meat pies; cured sausages and salami; chorizo; fabada (a legume-based dish with ham and sausage); roast game; lamb; stews both with meaet and legume-based vegetarian dishes; sausage lasagna; salad with faro, feta cheese, tomato and olive oil; black olives and dishes containing them; grilled pork chop or roast pork loin; aged Manchego cheese.
